## Opinion text

THOMPSON, Judge,
concurring in the result.
In cases such as these, the trial court’s determination should be afforded great deference. However, even according that deference to the trial court’s decision, I must conclude that in this case the father’s conduct did not rise to an implied consent to the termination of his parental rights under § 26-10A-9, Ala.Code 1975. Therefore, I concur in the result.
